Video Games Europe release a statement on Stop Killing Games
7 Jul 2025 at 9:25 am UTC Likes: 15

What they said is nothing new. This is precisely why we sign the petition in the first place. We want the publishers to PUT EFFORT into ensuring games are not being disabled forever. Yes, this generates extra cost. I am sure they can manage if they funnel more money in the direction of game developers and less towards shareholders.

How to play games from GOG and Epic Games on Linux, SteamOS and Steam Deck

I use the .deb package for Heroic, it somehow always worked better to me than flatpak. And AppImage takes too long to load.

GeForce NOW on Steam Deck really can be a game-changer

I gave up and just kept dual-booting Windows, which is a better experience for free.

Except for the Windows license fee plus you are separated from your beloved Linux desktop if you want to alt+tab while gaming 😛.

A friend wants me to jump into Fortnite? Yeah, okay — not a problem!

I did Call of Duty: Warzone too but that surely requires a mouse and keyboard 🙂.

Great guide. BF4 is very playable. The only downside is having to play as Russia 💩.

Open source PS2 emulator PCSX2 v2.4 brings SDL 3, Wayland support, lots of compatibility fixes
2 Jul 2025 at 8:25 am UTC

What a turnaround from this: https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/pull/10179 [External Link]

This is hilarious:

PCSX2 still supports Wayland. It just prefers the XCB/XWayland platform by default. You can set the I_WANT_A_BROKEN_WAYLAND_UI environment variable and experience the brokenness for yourself on the AppImage builds, or add the wayland socket to the flatpak.

:grin:
